Anthony,
This is a bug with NetView 5.1 security. Look in /usr/OV/PD/cores/nvsecd/
for a core file. I have a case open with IBM and have sent them a core
file, but have yet to hear back. They did seem to be aware of the problem
when I opened the ticket though.
An ovstart will restart nvsecd, and does not seem to affect the security of
other EUIS. Maybe it would be wise to put in a cron job to run ovstart
periodically to prevent users from seeing the problem....
HTH,
Scott
